I hope that's not why we're here. That would be deeply depressing. Unless you meant "here" as "in the comments" instead of the broader philosophical sense.
It looks like you can install a different Linux distro on it just from a few quick google searches. I'd imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to pull off. If I get one of these I would definitely switch to a different os.
This would be quite the machine for my CS major this Fall then. Chrome OS is limiting but if it's possible to install Linux (or dare I say it, Kalilinux) on it, it would be awesome.
Day 15 - Could totally enjoy one of these at home. I've been a fan for many years, and often link to your articles when I'm writing in other forums. Thank you, congratulations, and good luck for the next 20.
I've been rocking an Acer C720p for a few years now. This would be a fantastic upgrade. I do love that chromebook though it has gotten me through almost all of school.
Chromebook is lightweight and fast. And it just have the basic productivity suite I needed for eveyday task. Play stre addition is really good, chromebook just became something worth buying. I'm not a gamer anymore, but I still play some mobile games so this should fits me. My next laptop would be chromebook. I hope chomebooks get better with future updates.
Cool. I'm looking at getting Chromebooks for my young kids to use for school work. I'm getting tired of removing malware from my Windows machines because my kids don't have the experience and discipline to not click on tempting ads and such.
This would be so sick for being super mobile/powerful if all your apps were Google based or in the cloud. Definitely looks like a step up from previous Chromebooks.
Never had a Chromebook....yet lol. My desktop is pretty old and starting to have some serious issues. It really is on its last legs, so this would be perfect.
I'd really like to own a Chromebook. I've only had brief usages of them, but owning one would really allow me to get to know the product and it's capabilities.
I'm still hoping for a 15" high resolution Chromebook. Such a device would be perfect for several relatives of might who want a simple "cloud" computer, with a 15" screen (or 14" really) that they can see with their older eyes. They have expendable income, so they want a good solid experience. Quality materials. The Pixel would have technically fit the bill, but its ancient! Still hoping.

I'm still hoping for a 15" high resolution Chromebook. Such a device would be perfect for several relatives of might who want a simple "cloud" computer, with a 15" screen (or 14" really) that they can see with their older eyes. They have expendable income, so they want a good solid experience. Quality materials. The Pixel would have technically fit the bill, but its ancient!
